戈迪默的《历史》由两个故事构成:一是叙述者讲述的一只鹦鹉和饭馆的故事;二是鹦鹉讲述的来过饭馆吃饭的顾客的故事。其中叙述者是传译,在其客观、平淡的叙述中,借助鹦鹉的见闻、记忆与回声以及叙述者对鹦鹉声音的倾听推助叙述情感的变化。以“小”叙事讲述着“大”“历史”:饭馆的历史、法国南部乡村的历史、全球经济一体化浪潮中本土文化的命运,甚至记忆的历史。
Gordimer’s “History” consists of two stories: the story of a parrot and restaurant narrated by the narrator; and the story of a parrot about a customer who came to a restaurant to eat. The narrator is interpreter. In his objective and dull narrative, the narrator’s emotion is promoted through the knowledge of parrot, memory and echo, and narrator’s listening to parrot’s voice. The narration tells the story of “big ” “history ”: the history of restaurants, the history of villages in the south of France, the fate of native cultures in the tide of global economic integration, and even the history of memories.
